A gentleman who has spent some time
in Europe in the study of electrical inter
ests, was asked the reason for the slow
growth of isolated incandescent lighting
in Paris. He said that nothing more than
a two inch plank was allowed to be placed
over q steam boiler. There was a strange
idea hat a boiler on exploding rose i'll the
air and fell in exactly the same spot, and
that if there was anything heavy enough
in,the way to prevent this intelligent &C
ton on the part of the bursting boiler,
much damage might be done.-Boston

Government TESTS.
The Royal Baking Powder Declared Superior
to all Others.

The fact that Royal Baking Powder is, in all respects.
the best baking powder offered to the public has been
established beyond question.
Prof. n. A. Mott, when employed by the U. S. Govern
ment to analyze the various baking powders of the market
to determine which was the best and most economical, afteg
an extended investigation, reported in favor of the Royal,
and II was adopted for government use.
Prof. Mott has continued his examinations of baking
powders sold at the present day, and now afirms it as his
deliberate Judgment, arrived at after most thorough research,
and a careful examination of the principal brands of tn
market, that the Royal is undoubtedly the purest and mos
reliable baking powder offered to the public. Prof. Mott, ia
his recent report, says:
1.-THE Royal Baking Powder is absolutely pure. fr
have so found it in many tests made both for that company
and the U. s. Government.
81 will go still further and state that, because of the
facilities that company have for obtaining perfectly pVic
cream of tartar, and for other reasons dependent upon the
proper proportions of the same, and the method of its prep.
aration. the Royal Baking Powder is undoubtedly the
purest and most reliable baking powder offered to the
public. DR.. N A. MOTT, PH.D."
